SIGHTSEEING TOURS

A great selection of private sightseeing tours

Hreyfill has been providing taxi service in Reykjavik since 1943 and also specializes in personalized guided shorter tours for small groups of 1-8 persons. The tours are carefully selected with aim to allow participants to enjoy as much of Iceland’s unique landscape and scenery as possible on each occasion, and supplemented by a range of exciting options such as bird watching, horse- riding, sailing, fishing and other pursuits.

The design of our routes allows a wide measure of flexibility, both in terms of time and destination. At the same time, this concept also enables us to produce customized tours on client wishes at short notice.

The attractions and benefits of small-group travel are as many as they are varied, allowing for a much more personalized, economic and flexible service than that generally found on, say, coach tours.

All prices quoted cover full cost of tours unless otherwise stated.
Please note that the quoted price may only be available ordering through the website. Otherwise the taximeter will be running.
